danse (dance)

player gestures/emotes for fabric/quilt servers using core shaders

There are 7 gestures at the moment;

More are in the works..!

Using vanilla core shaders!
Compatible with Sodium (but will break with iris/embeddium and similar mods that allow for custom shaders)

Clients don't have to install any mods, they can connect with a vanilla client!

/gesture bits
/gesture fall
/gesture grow
/gesture helicopter
/gesture handstand
/gesture wave

Persistent player models can be spawned like this:

/summon danse:player_model ~ ~ ~ {Player:Steve,Animation:wave}

Animation can be played by modifying the "Animation" NBT string:

/data modify entity @e[...] Animation set value wave

Changing the skin:

/data modify entity @e[...] Player set value Alex
